Keywords: water vapor radiometer, tropospheric delay, water content

About the paper

Abstract

This article is devoted to the results of the work of water vapor radiometers installed on the co-location sites of the “Quasar” VLBI network. Contribution of various components of the WVR’s receiving system is estimated. Instability characteristics of the receiving system are analyzed, the analysis results received over long time intervals are shown. Methodological and technical decisions which are implemented in the WVR’s hardware/software unit, allow ensuring the stability of the metrological characteristics in a wide range of meteorological conditions over the time intervals of more than a year.
